Default Weber barbecue: Regulator prevents full temperature unless youplay with main value

The one thing I hate about my 1-year-old Weber grill is that you have to
open the main propane valve very carefully or the regulator will kick
into some sort of safety or limiter mode and the grill temperature will
never get higher than 325f.

Is this a known problem with these grills?

It there a solution - from Weber?

The grill is a Weber Genesis:

Common problem with the newer safety tanks. It thinks there is a gas
leak. Try turning the gas valves on slowly.

Probably the same guy designed that as the stupid vent free gasoline
cans. I've spilled more gasoline in a couple years than I ever spilled
with the old style.
